Q: Hi Gang. I have about a 20% position in Financials and am looking to either (1) average up on Home Capital Group from a 3.3% position to a 4%+ position or (2) I may start a 2.5% position in Equitable Group (EQB) because of its growth prospects and ultra low p/e.

Other possibilites instead of adding to my financial weighting is VRX or CSU because I am underweight the Pharmas and Tech. Your thoughts would be appreciated regarding my weighting in the Financials and HCG vs EQB at current valuations.

Thanks, as always.

Q: Hi,

Have you heard about a company LXV. This company is launching a social website Mobio on Dec 1. The company is already up a lot in the last few days and the volume has picked up by 20 times. Is it worth the risk?

What do you think of XLA? Or is there another emerging markets ETF that you'd recommend, preferably with a dividend?

Q: Thanks for the great service you provide, first of all! I am a new member and am learning by the bucketload, both on your Education section and the Q&A.

I have one quick question on Osisko & Detour: I've reviewed the many answers already provided herein, but I fail to find what the production costs, all in, would be for Osisko &Detour Gold.
In a "flat" gold market it would be of value to know which of the small/juniors are likely to survive, given the related costs of production. Thanks!

Q: Hi,

I'm a longer term investor with a medium risk appetite and I was interested in Healthcare stocks but wonder if I have missed the boat?

Can you recommend any CDN healthcare stock or etf with 2-5% dividend or US ETF?

Can you give me your thoughts on OHI? I'm interested in it because it had a a major pullback recently, unlike the others Healthcare ETFs, and it sports a hefty dividend.

Q: Concerning Sea Dragon Energy your last answer was
There is always 'hope'...but hoping is not investing.

We have been very disappointed with management of Sea Dragon, after having high hopes. It is too small now and does not have much cash left. It is likely time to exit this one.

Can you elaborate why you are disappointed with management.

Q: Do you follow SCC (Sears Canada) at all? Is this a good opportunity to get in early on a potential new REIT or is it just too speculative?

Q: HI enjoyed watching your show on BNN. I am having trouble spending the time to pick and analyze individual stocks and I am looking to slowly switch to ETF based investments. So I took a small 1000 share position in ZMI and I am thinking of just gradually adding to it over time as money becomes available inside my RRSP. I am looking to retire in about 5-6 years. I noticed you haven't commented on ZMI, thoughts? Thanks

Q:
Sphere 3D (any: tsxv) is not a 3d printing company but rather in the cloud space. It has contracts with Corel.

The company has done a private placement at $3.35. Share price is at $4.30. Is this not a good sign ? The market cap is only around $75 million with a low float count.

Regards,
Thomas
